Season 9
Season 9 of Rick Steves’ Europe features ten all-new TV shows. Join writer and host Rick Steves as he experiences the local culture, cuisine, and fun in some of Europe’s most interesting places: Italy (Siena, Assisi, and Tuscany’s wine country); England (Cotswold villages, Wells, Stonehenge, and the southern coast); Germany (Dresden, Leipzig, Hamburg, Nürnberg, and Frankfurt); and some exotic eastern adventures in Bulgaria and Romania. Whether you’re an armchair traveler eager to learn, or an active traveler dreaming up new plans, Season 9 of Rick Steves’ Europe is the next best thing to a plane ticket.

Season 10
Twelve episodes include Portugal (Lisbon and the country’s heartland), the heart of England, Greek islands, Sicily, and Scotland (Glasgow, Highlands, and islands). This season also offers a travel skills episode on cruising, and two special episodes on Europe’s greatest festivals. In each episode, Rick explores the local culture, cuisine, and fun with local guides — all with an emphasis on inspiring and equipping American travelers to get out and experience these wonderful destinations on their own.

Season 11
Season 11 of Rick Steves’ Europe features eight all-new episodes. Join Rick as he experiences the local culture, cuisine, and fun along with some powerful lessons that only travel can teach. This season features the Austrian, Italian, Swiss, and French Alps (including hut-hiking around Mont Blanc) and sights that tell the story of fascism in Germany. This season also ventures beyond Europe, featuring two episodes on Egypt and one on Ethiopia. And, with the coronavirus pandemic causing all of us to reaffirm our values and priorities, we've produced a special retrospective episode called "Why We Travel."

Season 12
Season 12 of Rick Steves' Europe features a dozen new episodes showcasing Europe's great art and architecture in bite-size chunks. Join Rick as he explores the rise of Western Civilization as seen through Europe's most beautiful and evocative art: climbing deep into prehistoric tombs, summiting Michelangelo's magnificent dome, waltzing through glittering palaces, and pondering artistic genius from Praxiteles to Picasso.

Season 13
Stow away with Rick as we experience the local culture, history, cuisine, and fun with two episodes each in Iceland (Reykjavík with the Golden Circle, Ring Road), Poland (Kraków, Warsaw with Gdańsk), Istanbul (Turkish Delights, Capital of Emperors and Sultans), and London (A Royal Tour, Yesterday and Today); travel-thrill-packed episodes featuring highlights of Paris and Italy; and then loosen your belt for an unforgettably tasty gourmet barge cruise in Burgundy.
Episodes
Season 1

Portugal's Heartland
Leaving Lisbon for the countryside, we eat barnacles in a salty old fishing town, march with pilgrims on the anniversary of a miracle, ponder the local Romeo and Juliet, sample university life, and rummage through the riches of Portugal's Golden Age.

Paris: Grand and Intimate
After marveling at masterpieces in the Louvre and strolling the Champs-Elysees, we explore a delightful Parisian neighborhood. We meet a pipe organist, drop by a butcher shop, design our own perfume, and cruise the Seine.

South England: Dover to Land's End
From the white cliffs of Dover to Land's End, we ponder Roman, Norman, and Nazi invasions. After exploring Admiral Nelson's flagship, we chase wild ponies across the moors and discover an ancient stone circle. For refreshment, it's cream tea and Cornish pasties.

Heart of England and South Wales
After King Arthur country at Glastonbury, we go back in time to prehistoric Stonehenge. We sample hard apple cider in Wells, meet an eccentric lord in the Cotswolds, and visit an evocative ruined abbey in South Wales.

Caesar's Rome
Rome welcomes the new millennium spiffed up as never before. We tour Rome's ancient sights from the Forum and Colosseum to the glorious Pantheon. Then, after hiking the Appian Way and exploring the catacombs, we track down the best gelato in Rome.

Germany's Black Forest and Cologne
Rick teams up with his wife and kids to enjoy the good life, dipping into a classy mineral spa, trying our luck at a fancy casino, devouring chocolate-cherry cake, and exploring Germany's most romantic forest.

Scotland's Islands and Highlands
In Scotland, legends of Bonnie Prince Charlie swirl with pipers and kilts around crumbling castles. After tossing a caber (log) at a Scottish clan gathering, we remember Highland massacres. We play hide-and-seek with the Loch Ness Monster, tour a whiskey distillery, and take a ferry to sacred Iona.

Surprising Bulgaria
Bulgaria is a time warp of old and new — from chic shops in the city to donkey cars in the country. We hike to a mountain monastery, meet two sculptors (dad does Stalin, son does nudes), and enjoy a traditional dinner feast at a local home.
